Textile Screens offer more than just classic sun protection - they combine functionality, design and comfort ata new level. Their effectiveness against heat, their weather resistance and their aesthetic appearance are particularly impressive compared to internal systems. Below is an overview of the most important advantages of Textile Screens .
External Textile Screens stop the sun's rays before they reach the window glass, significantly reducing the room temperature without the need for air conditioning. Depending on the fabric type of the Textile Screens, up to 70 % of the solar energy remains outside without the room being darkened.
The high-tech fabrics allow you to see out, but at the same time protect you from unwanted glances. This ensures your privacy is maintained - even with large areas of glazing in living rooms and bedrooms.
Thanks to the innovative zip technology, ROMA Textile Screens remain stable up to wind speeds of 120 km/h. This makes zipSCREEN.2 particularly suitable for tall buildings, exposed locations and large window areas.
Whether by app, remote control or fully automatically via sun and wind sensors - Textile Screens can be conveniently controlled and seamlessly integrated into common Smart Home systems.
Different fabric structures, degrees of transparency and over 150 colors of the ROMA color harmony enable individual designs that blend harmoniously into any façade - according to architectural requirements.
An optional insect screen can be integrated into the Textile Screens - without an additional roller blind, a space-saving and convenient solution. This allows you to enjoy fresh air without having to worry about mosquitoes or other insects - ideal for bedrooms and patio entrances.
The relatively small box sizes make Textile Screens ideal for renovation projects and ensure a very discreet appearance even with large windows.
As convincing as the advantages are - as with any system, there are aspects of Textile Screens that should be considered depending on the installation situation and use. In order to make an informed decision, it is worth taking a closer look at possible limitations.
They are installed on the outside of the window, which can pose structural challenges in some renovation projects - especially in hard-to-reach areas or on listed facades.
Textile Screens offer many advantages, especially in terms of comfort, design and energy efficiency. In certain situations - such as when there is a need for darkening or increased burglar resistance - ROMA Roller Shutters may be the better choice. If, on the other hand, maximum light control and modern façade design are the priority, ROMA External Venetian Blinds are the ideal complement or alternative.
